The Urban Realm
An article about the Asia Pacific Rail conference in Hong Kong which discusses the importance of close integration between railways and the wider urban realm in both transport and urban planning. Arthur D. Little’s report on the Future of Urban Mobility is discussed, as Hong Kong currently holds first place in the Urban Mobility Index for public transport accessibility across the world’s leading cities. Although this is regarded as good news locally, Hong Kong only scored 58%, which reflects the poor state of urban public transport elsewhere.
